Description-en: NSS module for using NIS+ as a naming service
This package provides a Name Service Switch that allows your NIS+ server
act as a name service. This means providing user account information,
group id's, host information, aliases, netgroups, and basically anything
else that you would normally get from /etc flat files.
.
This module was formerly part of glibc, but is now standalone to be able
to link against TI-RPC for IPv6 support.
